Energy Bagua Foundation Class Nov 22 and Jan 23 | Bodhi Meditation Toronto

February 27, 2023.  In this blog post, graduates from two of Bodhi Meditation Toronto’s most recently concluded 7-Day Energy Bagua Foundation Classes share their personal experiences and tangible changes they have observed over 7 days of this class.

It was truly heartwarming and inspiring to hear of the positive changes that came about in just a mere 7 days.  Some reported changes as soon as Day 1 of the class.  Many have also shared that these positive changes persisted and stayed permanent, even after the class ended!

Twenty six students in total shared their personal observations on Day 7 of each class.  Each condition in the chart below reflects the number of students who reported that benefit.  All but one student observed positive changes!

Less Stressed, Lighter, and Happier

Up to 35% of students, including those who suffer anxiety, reported feeling less stressed, lighter and happier than before they started the class.  Barbara, who has taken the class twice, shared that Energy Bagua is helping her release emotional pain and she can feel herself getting better. Claudia shared that at one point during class, she felt her entire body enveloped by white light.  The experience was very peaceful, it was so serene, and profound.

Improved Relations – More Patient, More Grounded, Less Prone to Anger

Up to 35% of students reported that their relations with family, colleagues, and students improved as they became more grounded and less prone to anger.  Mothers are more patient with their children, less irritable.  

Clarence, a high school teacher, shared that he was able to adeptly turn a potentially bad situation into a joke and set the entire class at ease. Jazmin shared that I now know how to approach my mum from a loving place.  I’m more relaxed and able to deal with whatever comes.

Better Quality of Sleep – Waking up Rested

A good night’s sleep is elusive these days.  30% of students reported that during the 7 days of the class, they enjoyed a more restful sleep compared to before.  Shereeza shared that right after Day 1, she slept like a baby every night

Ada reported that before the class, 

I woke up every hour during the night and sometimes couldn’t get back to sleep until 4.30am.  This week, I can sleep for four hours straight without waking up!

Avril shared the following: 

What I noticed over the last couple of days is that I actually sleep deeply and I don’t wake up grumpy, cranky and miserable! I’m a terrible sleeper – I can go to sleep but I would wake up 16, 20 times at night! I don’t have a good rest at night.

Since Day 3 of this class,  I actually sleep more deeply and stay asleep. I sleep about four or five hours but it feels like a deeper quality of sleep.

Higher Energy Levels Sustained Throughout The Day

Many students shared that their energy levels were so high after each class that they found it difficult to fall asleep at night!  Yet with less sleep, they shared that because the quality of sleep was good, they still felt rested waking up!  

Claudia shared that during her daily workout, she felt that she had so much energy that she could keep going for another hour even after her workout ended.  

Katica’s daughter, Natasha, shared this of Katica who did not speak English, and walks with a cane:

Usually after chemotherapy, she would go straight to bed all pale, tired, exhausted, and sleepy most of the day. This week, after chemo, she was able to get out of bed and come here.

She’s been walking faster during the Bagua practice and barely holding onto her cane. She was even trying to jump which was shocking to me! 

Bodily Pain Eased and Alleviated

Although students all came with different physical pain and challenges, there were 6 who reported significantly less pain from before they started the class.  We share some of the more amazing results here.

David, now 70 years old, suffered neck and shoulder injury from a motorcycle accident decades ago as a teenager.  

Doctors couldn’t do anything to heal the pain. Nothing helped. This is the first time that something has made a difference.

Before the class, the pain was really acting up.  On a scale of 1 to 10, the pain was a 7.  By Day 2 of the class, the pain was already easing. I have since been sleeping very nicely without having to do crazy configurations on my pillow to protect my neck. The pain level has gone down dramatically from a 7/10 to a 2/10!

Sharon suffered sciatic nerve pain for many, many years.

Before the class, my sciatica pain was a 7/10.  After the class, the pain is completely gone – 0/10!  I can actually run up and down the stairs! I even raked the leaves in the backyard – five bags of leaves! And I came off all my meds! So grateful!

With tears in her eyes, Wendy shared the following:

My right ear has a problem.  When I touch it or rub it, it’s very painful.  But last night, when I cleaned my ear with the towel – I couldn’t believe it – the pain was gone! My ear has been painful for the last 2 to 3 years.  I used to tell the person doing my facial not to touch my ear. Now I can rub my ear and there’s no problem, it’s completely healed! 

It’s so amazing and it’s been only one week of Energy Bagua!

Improved Focus and Clarity of Thinking

Many made the observation that their ability to focus during work intensified throughout the 7 days. 

Peter, a Physics professor at the University of Toronto, shared that this first week of the term has gone exceptionally well – for some reason (we surmise Energy Bagua!), the quality of his lectures was much better than before!

High Blood Pressure Lowered

Four students who suffer high blood pressure shared their improved blood pressure readings (before and after the Energy Bagua Class) with us.  

Beaming from ear to ear, Yvonne shared the following:

After the first day of walking Energy Bagua, for the first time in my life, my blood pressure went down to 124/68. I never had that before! 

Today, it  was 130/76, which is still good.  It used to be 170 or 180.  I couldn’t get it below that. I’m still on high blood pressure medicine which I’ve taken for 40 years. Once I continue my Energy Bagua practice, I know I’m going to be off the meds completely!

Clarence shared his readings:

About 3 or 4 years ago, my blood pressure was a very high 230/120. My doctor put me on a cocktail of drugs. Currently I’m still taking them.  

I measured my blood pressure this week and it was around 130/90. It was with meds but that’s still good!

Similarly, Ada shared that before Energy Bagua, even with meds, her blood pressure remained on the high side. Energy Bagua was the key to normalizing her blood pressure.

Easy Weight Loss

Three students reported that they shed unwanted pounds within the 7-day Class, losing 2-3 pounds without even trying!  

Barbara, who has taken the Energy Bagua Class twice now practicing for a few months shared the following:

I lost 30 pounds! I think the biggest thing is that Energy Bagua helped me have the energy to take care of myself.  

No More Cold Hands and Feet

Three students happily shared that they are no longer suffering from cold hands and feet!  Angela shared the following:

I’m always cold.  I always wanted to move somewhere warmer as I can’t tolerate cold weather.  My hands and feet are always cold, frozen. 

Energy Bagua practice this week has made my hands and feet toasty warm all week long!  My husband can testify to this!

Eye Floaters Fade Away

Three students observed that their eye floaters have either faded away or lightened and not as dark as before.

No more Buzzing in Ears, Edema, Blood Sugars Improved

With deep gratitude, Bev shared the following:

I have had edema in my legs since my last pregnancy, which was 28 years ago. My legs and ankles were always swollen and puffy and now it’s 90% normal. Now I can run and jump around which I couldn’t do before.

I also had buzzing in my ear day and night since September 2022. I’m due for an MRI next week to check on this but I’m going to hold it off because the buzzing is gone!

Actually the buzzing was gone since Day 2 but I didn’t share this then because I wasn’t sure.  But now the buzzing is completely gone!

[Editor’s Note: As of this writing, the buzzing in Bev’s ear has not returned!]

Yvonne shared her blood sugars story:

My blood sugar used to be 8 or 9 plus.  This morning, my sugar level was 6.1, which is good!

No Observed Benefits

One student shared that she was still in pain on Day 7 and did not observe any changes after 7 Days.  We note that we should not be discouraged by this because our bodies are all in different states of healing.  Just because we don’t feel or sense something tangible right away does not mean that healing is not in-progress.  

The Journey Continues

Congratulations to all our graduates!   The Class is now concluded, but there is more practice you may do! 😇
